About me

Hi everybody! Welcome to my blog, I’d like to share some more informations about me.

My name is Eleonora and I’m the founder of The Fashion Screen.

You may want to know something more about me and why did I start this blog?

Well, The Fashion Screen is a combination of my two great passions: Fashion and Cinema.

First of all, I’m Italian (from Rome) of German and Russian origins. I started modeling very young, at the age of 14, in Italy. My parents were classical dancers at the Opera of Rome, my Mother was a First Ballerina, and my Aunts and Grandparents all painters. So, my family is composed by Artists, people that live for what they are passionate about. For years, I sketched and put photos taken from fashion magazines on collages and so I did a summer course in fashion design at the age of 16 in the well known “Saint Martin’s school” in London. When I was 17, I moved to Paris to study fashion design in a fabulous school, called L’Ecole de la Chambre Syndicale de la Couture Parisienne. I discovered the real Haute Couture, the basics of making clothes, not just the design. While studying, I had the opportunity to do internships at Dior and Lagerfeld Gallery, and also be an assistant stylist on many important fashion shootings sets, like Moschino, Diesel.

Then my life changed for a while because, driven by my stream of emotions, I enrolled a drama school in Paris called Les Cours Florent. I found myself in a very particular position, new feelings, a sense of being complete. I moved to Los Angeles to study acting at The Lee Strasberg Institute, then to NYC, then back to Rome, Italy, where I started to work as an actress in movies and tv series and started modeling again. I also directed two short movies, and video arts. I really love movies. (Check my resumé here)

I started with a Youtube channel where I help young girls pursuing their dream in the fashion/show business called Eleonora Moda. One day, I thought that having a place where to put my ideas and sharing with other readers my feelings about fashion and cinema, wasn’t a bad thought! So, that’s it, I created this blog: The Fashion Screen.

This year, I’ve been the Fashion Tutor in an important Italian tv program called Detto Fatto on Rai Due, where I weekly shared the new trends and created a mini fashion show with 6 different looks. Every time is something different and really exciting.
